Chapter 2

Meanwhile, while Ash and the others were battling their opponents, All of Black Jack's pokemons, along with Aurora, were near their targeted destination, the Team Molten base, placed on one of the mountains Bluesky spotted previously. It appeared to be a red fortress-like base. They were hiding a distance away, hiding in the bushes and trees.

"(There it is)," Bluesky growled.

"(Not our usual style this, hiding in the bushes)," Metagross growled.

"(So, plans anyone)?" Tyranitar growled.

"(How about this)?" Chan growled. "(Aurora and I will sneak into the back and look for the prisoners, Nidoking, Feraligatr, and Tyranitar will provide distraction by ground and Bluesky and Metagross will provide distraction by air)."

Nidoking raised his paw up to get everyone's attention. "(Can't we just do it the old fashioned way)?" he growled. "(Charging up to those thugs, smashing their brains in and out and then save the hostages after beating up every last one of them? Because they're going to be guarding those guys and we're going to win anyway)."

"(See, here's the problem with you these days)," Tyranitar growled. "(You seem to have become predictable, and we're not supposed to be predictable. You see, there's a little thing we call variety)."

"(Me wanna know what variety is)!" Feraligatr bellowed enthusiastically, holding up his finger.

"(Basically, on this occasion for example, we got a variety of ideas of how we're gonna save the hostages)," Metagross growled explaining both the definition and more possible plans. "(We could all sneak into that building without being seen, we could provide distractions leading them into a trap, or we could)…"

"(Rumble)…!" Nidoking roared impatiently running towards the base after hearing enough talk between his friends. Aurora and Bluesky were not far behind because they were desperate on saving their dragon kind. The remaining pokemon were slightly dumbfounded after seeing their friends quickly proceeding towards their target.

"(What the heck! I've been bored anyway for the last couple of days)!" Tyranitar roared before running into action with his fellow crack addicts not far behind.

At the base, a number of guarding Molten grunts spotted them. They were standing guarding on various parts of the building. "Intruders! Stop them!" one of them yelled. The guards quickly blasted bullets out of the guns they held. Despite numerous bullets being shot out, none of them were able penetrate the hard bodies of the pokemon that were trained by the one of the toughest battling veterans. Chan, Bluesky and Aurora were the only exceptions but with Chan's great agility he was able to dodge each one that were threatening to puncture him while Aurora, who doesn't have much speed, wrapped her body around the Salamence's as he dodged each one.

One of the guards pulled out a grenade and tossed it towards one of the intruders running on the ground. Chan quickly spotted it; he quickly leapt towards it and kicked it like it was a soccer ball at the wall some of the grunts were standing on. One looked down and saw the grenade below and knew what was coming next. "Shi…"

BOOM!

The grenade exploded, blasting a huge gap in the walls. The guards fell and crashed into the demolished rubble.

BOOM!

That thunderous impact occurred when Tyranitar ran and rammed his entire body into another one of the walls, smashing it into pieces, creating another large gap and making another group of guards falling into the rubble.

Tyranitar and the others made their way in but they saw the metal base door shutting up, closing their chances of saving their hostages. After seeing the steel door tightly closed, Feraligatr took his chance to break it down. He glowed energetically blue, powering up his next attack while zooming towards it, attempting to break it down with his Tackle attack. The move connected with great impact, making a huge clanging noise upon collision but neither door nor pokemon were fazed by the blow, much to Feraligatr's surprise. "(It didn't work)!" the blue crocodile roared.

"(Well, if you can't find an entry)…" Metagross growled before slamming his entire body into the walls, which to the inside of the base. "(Then make one)."

"(C'mon, Aurora! Now's our chance)!" Bluesky roared as he flew directly into the hole Metagross created. Aurora and Metagross quickly followed.

"Hey! They're inside!" yelled one of the guards. "Get them!"

Many of the guards stood up, going in pursuit of the three pokemon that went in but they were stopped by the rest of the pokemon who were trained by one of the most sadistic trainers, Black Jack, as they stood in front of the broken wall. "(Twig break time)!" the enthusiastic Nidoking roared while his comrades looked at the enemies with eyes that showed pleasure.

Meanwhile, at a familiar location where Team Ocean's base was nearby, the group known as the Orre Pack, consisted of Wes, Isaac, Stevens, Rui and Mecha, were hiding in the bushes going through their plans. "Okay, everybody got that?" Stevens asked.

"Yep, we got it," Wes replied with confidence.

"Finally, after all this time we're going to battle some proper organisations unlike those thugs back in Orre, just the like good old days when we teamed up with the other guys," Isaac said.

"Coming to think of it, why do we get fight criminals like these when we're with them?" Mecha asked curiously.

"Destiny, dude! Destiny!" Isaac replied enthusiastically.

"Good luck, Wes," Rui said winking towards him while blowing a kiss while Plusle who was riding on her shoulder, held up a V sign with his paw.

"Yeah, sure. You too," Wes replied, turning away with a stressed look on his face, taking a pokeball off his belt. He then tossed it out. "Go! Quagsire!"

The pokeball opened releasing a blue mudfish like creature with flabby paws and legs, eyes so small that they looked like dots and dark blue fins on his back. "Ready to go for a swim?" Wes asked.

"Quag!" the Quagsire cried waving his paws in excitement.

"Are you ready, pardna?" Isaac asked Mecha in a Texan accent.

"Why the accent?" Mecha asked showing a dull expression.

"I don't knaw!"

Wes, Isaac, Quagsire and Mecha were getting ready diving into the sea in an attempt to find the Team Ocean base. Wes held onto the waist his Quagsire from behind and Isaac held onto Mecha's neck from behind also, both of them needed help to swim underwater.

"Are you guys ready?" Mecha asked.

"There's no point asking us that, Mecha," Isaac said before slapping his hard stone back. "Giddy up, horsy!"

"Let's go!" Wes yelled. With that said, Quagsire and Mecha jumped and dived into the sea with their human partners held onto them tightly.

"Be careful, you guys!" Rui cried encouragingly, as did Plusle after they splashed into the sea. Stevens, Plusle and Rui were now the only members of the Orre Pack standing on the beach in case their comrades need backup, which they sincerely doubt they will. "Do you think they're gonna be okay?" Rui asked, seeing if Stevens had confidence.

"They'll be fine," Stevens said with confidence in his tone, not knowing a couple of shadowed figures were sneaking up to them from behind.

Underwater, Wes and Isaac held onto their pokemon while they swam to find the base. They found it in no time at all and swam towards trying to find the entrance but to no avail. Wes smiled, he got his Quagsire to swim over to Mecha and get his attention. He then showed Mecha and Isaac that he was aiming his fist at the base. Getting the idea, Mecha turned his focus towards the base. With Isaac still holding, he dived towards the base, slamming his steel paw on the side of it, creating a huge hole in it. After he pulled his fist out, Wes quickly zapped his Quagsire back in before swimming into the hole while Mecha and Isaac quickly followed.

"Intruder alert! Intruder alert! Damaged wall! Damaged wall!" buzzed a computer placed inside the Team Ocean base.

"What the…" one of the security grunts said as he checked one of the screens. He saw Wes and his team mates inside the base while water was pouring in from the outside. "Get the base to rise to the surface!" he yelled.

Back at the Team Molten's base, while their friends battled outside the Molten building, Bluesky, Aurora and Metagross flew around different corridors inside the base, trying to find the prisoners. "(I hate mazes)!" Metagross growled feeling irritated.

They suddenly stopped when they heard a cry when they came across a path that split into two different directions. "(Left! That way)!" Aurora cried looking at its direction.

"There they are!" a man's voice yelled behind them.

"(Stupid buggers)," Metagross grunted annoyingly knowing that it was one of the Team Molten grunts. He quickly turned around and quickly shot out two large energetic beams out of his eyes, blasting the opposition away, causing a huge explosion upon impact. "(That ought to hold them for a while)," he growled before following his two friends.

With Aurora hearing and following the cries of her dragon tribe, she was flying at the speed of light while Bluesky and Metagross followed closely behind. "(There it is)!" Aurora cried excitedly with joy in her voice as they close to a closed door, which led to the imprisoned dragons.

"(Out of the way, Aurora)!" the Salamence growled with determination in his tone before he zoomed past her, slamming his entire body onto the door, breaking it down. "(Banging)!" he roared triumphantly.

But there was nothing to be triumphant about yet. Upon breaking the door, not only were they seeing the dragon pokemon trapped inside the electric cage, they also saw a couple of Charizards and Arcanines standing in front of the cage. "(Heh. We meet again)," Charizard No.2 growled nastily with a smile.

"(There's always a backup when there are raids this, Metagross)," Bluesky growled.

"(Team Molten aren't as dumb as I thought they are)," Metagross replied. "(Or maybe they are)."

"(You've made a big mistake by coming here)," Arcanine B growled.

"(Speaking of mistakes, this is a small one compared to the mistake you did)," Bluesky growled back. "(By getting us involved in the first place)."

"(You have no business getting involved. If you want to live, the exit's that way)," Charizard No.3 growled, pointing to the direction behind the opposition.

Aurora slithered between her two friends before going in front of them. "(Please… let my group go)," she cooed. "(Take me instead)."

"(Fine, we'll take ya)!" Charizard No.2 growled. "(And the rest)!"

He leapt towards the blue snake dragon, in an attempt to grab by the neck. "(Leave her alone)!" Bluesky roared as he charged and slammed his head into his opponent's abdomen.

"(There's no point reasoning with them, Aurora because in the end, they're the idiots)," Metagross growled before charging into battle.

Aurora looked on with concerned eyes, not only was she worried about the enemies' strength in numbers but she was also puzzled of why must situations like this must end in violence. After a small second of being hesitant, she decided to push those worries aside and joined in the battle with high hopes of winning it with high hopes of getting her tribe rescued.

She started teaming up with Bluesky, attacking the Charizards that were ganging up on the blue dragon. One of the Charizards' clenched paws glowed vigorously, aiming his attack towards the Salamence who knocked his partner away. Bluesky noticed the attack coming for him and quickly dodged it making the punch hit a different target. It hit Aurora in the face, much to Bluesky's shock as the impact of the attack sent her unconsciously flying until she violently hit the steel walls and then to the floor.

"(How unfortunate)…" the Charizard growled tonelessly.

"(Aurora)!!" Bluesky bellowed with utmost shock in his voice. His voice echoed throughout the whole base.

Back at the Team Ocean base, Wes, Isaac and Mecha were being chased by a large group of Team Ocean grunts while the base rose to the surface of the sea. Their target at this moment was to find Misty and the other prisoners. "Coming to think of it," Isaac said, panting between some of the words he spoke. "Shouldn't Ash be the guy to rescue her?"

"Both teams know that he's here," Wes explained. "If he was to rescue her, Team Ocean might use her as bait. That's what Black Jack said."

"Good point. Ash hasn't been in a right state of mind recently," Mecha said. "But at least he's pumped up for that battle."

"Let's split up," Wes said as they came across two different corridors. "They may split up and carry on following but at least their strength in numbers will decrease when we have to fight."

"Yeah, at least one of us will get to the prisoners and free them," Isaac said as he and Mecha went in one direction while Wes ran into the other. "This isn't going to work, is it?" he then asked, almost sounding sarcastically hopeless while putting on a big sheepish smile.

"Darn, another corridor split," Mecha said as they came across another.

"We'll do the same then, no need to moan about it," Isaac said before they parted ways.

No longer than later after turning around a corner, Mecha came across an opened door and decided to take a quick look into it. It had a number of monitors placed on the wall with a number of controllers underneath. Seeing this room as a security room, he quickly pressed a button, inside the room, next to the door to shut it. He hoped that the grunts would run past the door. Much to his hidden glee, they did as he heard several running footsteps ran past it. "Idiots," he thought to himself.

He quickly walked over to the monitors and observed each one closely. On one monitor he saw Misty imprisoned in a cage, Isaac still being chased shown on another monitor and Wes also being chased… but he was getting close to Misty's prison room. He opened a hatch on his mechanical arm, revealing a bunch of numbered and symbolised buttons, he began pressing them.

At Wes's location, he felt an object vibrating in his jacket pocket. He felt slightly frustrated as he took out his cell phone out and answering it. "I told you before, we're not the deli people," he said.

"Wes, it's me," Mecha's voice said through the phone.

"Mecha? Where are you?" Wes asked in surprise.

"I'm inside the security room of this base. I've found Misty's location. It's not far, it's just straight up ahead. I'll tell you where the other prisoners are when you rescue her."

"I see it… well, it should be obvious."

Wes ran into the direction Mecha had given him. As he got closer to the prison room door, he spotted the lock that needed a swipe card, showing a red light meaning that the door was locked. Before he could say anything, the red light suddenly switched to green and the door slid open, revealing a nervous looking Misty inside her cage, much to Wes's delighted surprise. "I got it open using the security controls," Mecha said. "You probably gonna need a key to open the cage door or better yet use one of your pokemon to break that door down. The rest is up to you, I'll be checking on Isaac."

"Roger. I'm out," Wes said before putting his cell phone away. After he had gotten inside the door quickly closed itself, locking all of the grunts outside.

"Careful, Wes!" Misty cried alarmingly. "It's a trap!"

Suddenly two parts of the ceiling fell to the floor with Wes standing a distance between. He looked both ways while two grunts jumped down from the holes of the ceiling. One of them was a female grunt and the other was male. "Prepare for deep trouble," the woman said.

"Make it an impact of a double," the man said.

"To drown those who oppose against us."

"To wash out those who deny us."

"To increase the depth of the sea."

"To make sure that it's meant to be."

"Genghis."

"Kahn."

"Team Ocean, sailing the seven seas all day and night."

"Surrender to us now or you'll definitely lose this fight."

"You guys remind me of someone," Wes said. Somehow, he expected something like this would happen despite being taken by surprise.

"This is far as you'll go, bud," Kahn said as he took his pokeball, as did his partner. "Now drown out."

Both of them tossed out their pokeballs, releasing one each of their pokemon. Kahn's pokeball opened releasing a Swarmpert, a mudfish like pokemon, while Genghis released her Cloyster, a spiky shellfish pokemon with dark pearl head inside the shell.

"Only one each?" Wes asked smugly as he tossed out two of his. A double battle, where trainers use two pokemon at a time to battle, was his specialty. The balls released a light purpled furred dog with a small red gem on his head, an Espeon, and a black dog with yellow ring patterns on various parts of body, an Umbreon. "Show me what you got."

Back at the Team Molten base…

CLANG!

That was the sound of Bluesky's back hit the wall after receiving combined Headbutt attacks from the enemy Charizards he was facing. He was struggling to fight back at them but the Charizards' strength in numbers caught up with him, not to mention that his friend, Aurora, was motionless after having her head hit on the steel walls.

Metagross, on the other hand, also struggled but it managed to keep his situation under control while facing off against two Arcanines. While the opposition stalked it, it looked at the blue dragon, who had his back against the wall, trying to recover while the Charizards slowly moved in for the kill.

"(Instinct)!" Metagross thought quickly, turning around to see two Arcanines leaping towards him like a horde of Mightyenas. "(Double Body Slam)" it thought before jumping away, making its enemies crashing into the floor instead.

Metagross quickly turned his attention back to its friend, who was still dizzy from the Chariazrds' attack. "(Slash time)," Charizard No.2 growled, showing a nasty smile. Both of them raised their claws, glowing them energetically showing that they were powering up their upcoming attacks. The Salamence shook the dizziness off his head and saw a pair of clawed paws about to slash down on him, having no time to counter the attacks, he closed his eyes tightly, ready to accept the cuts.

BAM!

That wasn't the sound of slicing or dicing. It was the sound of slamming. Puzzled, Bluesky opened his eyes seeing his friends, Metagross, standing in front of him, much to his surprise. He was also the enemy Charizards lying down on the floor, slowly getting to their feet. "(Metagross)..." the Salamence growled.

Metagross looked back towards his friend. "(You're getting a little soft, Bluesky)," he growled.

"(Yeah… I know)," Bluesky growled guiltily in response, looking over to the motionless Aurora. He realised that he became so concerned for her that he lost his concentration, thus momentarily losing the fight.

"(Don't you remember? When a time comes like this, don't think, just act)."

"(Yeah, fight first, worry later… but what do we do from here)?"

Metagross looked back at their opponents. "(We just do what we do best… fight)," it growled while glowing vigorously blue, charging up its attack before zooming towards the Charizards.

"(A little trade, eh)?" the Salamence growled as he looked at the two Arcanines, showing a sly smile. "(Looks like I'll have you two for my target practice)." He took flight, flapping his red wings flying into the air breathing red streams of flames at them.

Both Arcanines stood confidently where they were, despite the attack coming towards. The flame attack connected with them but they showed no pain, not even a small flinch while the flames circled around, much to Bluesky's surprise. "(What the)…?" he growled.

Red energy began surrounding the bodies of the Arcanines, their eyes glowed the same colour. They then fired out gigantic fireballs in forms of Chinese symbols. The Salamence's eyes widened with shock. He had only little time to react. He formed an energy barrier around, attempting to block the attack.

When the two fireballs hit the barrier, Bluesky focused his energy to keep the fireballs away. He put in a lot of strength into his barrier because he had no time to take any damage from two of the strongest Fire attacks. He let out a loud roar, forcing the flaming fireballs to be blasted away from him.

The two Fire Blast attacks came back towards them with great velocity but they managed to out of the way just in time, making the blasts hit the steel floor, causing a huge explosion. The force of the explosion sent everyone flying, hitting into the steel walls making huge dents in them before harshly crashing into the ground. The electric prison was unharmed because of its barriers and so was Aurora because she was at the safe distance when the explosion occurred.

Aurora began to stir from her unconsciousness. One of the badly hurt Arcanines saw her waking up and prepared for his next attack, forming a small ember in his mouth. The Salamence shook away his dizziness and saw that the enemy Arcanine shot out another Flamethrower attack at his friend. No time to waste, he rushed in front of her and formed another barrier around his body stopping the attack in its tracks.

When Aurora fully woke up, she saw Bluesky protecting her using his Protect move, blocking the Fire Blast. He let out a loud roar, powering up the barrier and forcing the blast away into the opposite direction. The blast was sent flying towards the Arcanines at rapid speed but they moved out of the way just in time, making the huge fireball hit the wall, causing another explosion.

While they leapt, one of the Arcanines shot out another Fire Blast. The Barrier Blueksy was using slowly vanished while he collapsed to the floor out of tiredness after sending away a number of strong Fire types on more than one occasion. As he the blast coming for him, threatening to burn him alive, his heart and mind commanded to stand up and continue fighting but his body disobeyed. With now that in mind and heavily breathing in and out, he closed his eyes tightly, awaiting his fate.

KABOOM!

Bluesky heard an explosion. It wasn't an explosion impacting on him. He opened his eyes and saw Aurora standing in front of him, with a barrier around her. "(Bluesky)," she cooed softly. "(Thank you)."

Seeing his friend alive and well in front of him, Bluesky felt that he regained his strength as he stood on all fours before walking up next to her. "(No problem)," he growled with a smile.

Back at the Team Ocean base, Wes, with his Umbreon and Espeon, was battling against a team of Genghis and Kahn, who were controlling Swashbuckler the Swarmpert and Shellshock the Cloyster.

"Espeon! Use your Zap Cannon on that Cloyster!" Wes ordered, poiting at the opposition. Espeon did as he was commanded, he glowed the gem on his forehead red before blasting a large electric ball out of it.

"Swashbuckler! Protect Shellshock!" Kahn ordered.

"I don't think so," Wes said smugly, knowing that Swarmperts are invincible against electric type attacks. "Umbreon! Use your Psychic!"

Umbreon's eyes glowed with blue energy surrounding him. He focused his eyes on the Swarmpert, who attempted to run to protect his partner upon his trainers command but blue began surrounding as he was put to a halt.

"Shellshock! Dodge that Zap Cannon and Tackle that Umbreon!" Genghis commanded.

At the last second, Shellshock dodged out of the harm's way, making the electric attack hit the wall, breaking a hole into it. That didn't stop anything, let alone Shellshock. With his shell closed tightly, he zoomed towards the black dog, who was still focused on Swashbuckler.

"Espeon! Iron Tail!" Wes yelled.

Espeon leapt and powered his tail vigorously, aiming his upcoming attack at the shelled pokemon. He swung his tail, slamming it onto Shellshock's hard shell. Despite that was a direct hit, it didn't have any affect, much to Wes's and Espeon's surprise.

Soon, it was Umbreon's when Shellshock knocked him with a great force. The knockdown knocked away his focus on the Swarmpert, who was now able to move. "Swashbuckler, aim your Mega Punch on that Espeon!" Kahn shouted.

The Swarmpert charged up his powers into his clenched paw. He ran towards Espeon, aiming his attack at the purpled furred creature. "Quick! Counter with your Quick Attack!" Wes commanded. "Get him in the leg!"

Espeon, with great speed, dashed towards the Swashbuckler hitting him in the knee. The Swarmpert tripped over his opponent, and inadvertently hit the lock of Misty's cell, making a dent.

"Hey…" Wes said, noticing the damage done to the cell door.

Meanwhile, Isaac, with communicating device in hand, found himself at a dead end with nowhere to run, let alone hide. The grunts were closing in for the kill, each with a pokeball or a knife. Despite the difficult situation, he was smiling a cheeky smile. "Kaboom?" he said quietly into the device.

"Yes, Isaac," Mecha said confidently, speaking through his communicating device. "Kaboom."

Isaac placed away the communicating device into his pocket and took out two pokeballs. "Smokey! Heracross! Go!" he shouted, throwing them out. The balls opened, releasing a small ball that appears to have the same colour as a pokeball, except that it had eyes and a large, dark blue, beetle bug with a horn on his head.

"Voltorb!" the small ball buzzed.

Recognising what kind of species it was, all the grunts became frightened. "No! Anything but that!" they yelled fearfully.

"Voltorb?" the small ball buzzed turning towards its trainer.

"Not yet, Smokey," Isaac said, seeing the grunts running away. "Heracross, pick up Smokey and throw him as hard as you can, in front of those bad guys."

The bug picked up the Voltorb. ""You can kaboom when you land, Smokey," Isaac said to the ball pokemon.

"Voltorb! Voltorb!" Smokey buzzed excitedly, which meant 'Kaboom! Kaboom!'

With all his strength, Heracross hurled Smokey across the corridor over all of the grunts' heads. They didn't notice it until it fell in front of them, much to their dismay. "How did you get here?" one of the grunts in the front yelled frighteningly.

Outside the base, a huge thunderous explosion occurred from the inside.

Back at Wes's location, everyone in the room lost their balance and toppled down to the floor. "What was that?" Kahn yelled in shock, as he stood right back up.

"It can't be anything good!" Genghis replied.

"Oh… but it is good… for us," Wes said with a confident smirk on his face. His pokemon were also showing off their smirks. "It seems but my buddies have just finished off yours."

"Don't bet on it," Kahn said gnarling his teeth. "Swashbuckler! Earthquake!"

The Swarmpert rose his arms as high as he could. "Get ready, you two!" Wes warned. His pokemon obeyed as they crouched down. With all his might, the Swarmpet went to slam his paws on the ground. "Jump!" Wes yelled.

His pokemon did as they were told as they leapt into the air, split seconds before Swasbuckler slammed his fists on the ground causing the floor to shake violently. With the exception of Swashbuckler, Umbreon and Espeon, everyone fell to the floor. Wes was the first to quickly recover from the fall he suffered. "Espeon! use your Psybeam on Swarmpert!" he yelled.

While still in the air, Espeon's gem glowed energetically again before he shot a multicoloured beam out of it, hitting it directly on top of Swashbuckler's head. Swashbuckler yelled out a painful roar after getting attacked in the head. Both Umbreon and Espeon landed on their feet. "Shellshock!" Genghis yelled pointing at one of Wes's pokemon. "Tackle!"

The Cloyster, with his shell closed, zoomed towards one of his enemies… until he stopped by a massive blue paw, which everyone recognised. "Swashbuckler! What are you doing!?" Kahn yelled disapprovingly, seeing his pokemon grabbing his partner's.

"Dang it! He's confused!" Genghis yelled angrily.

In confusion and madness, Swashbuckler roared while he lifted Shellshock over his head and then tossed him towards his human partners, knocking them down. "I got an idea, guys. I just hope Mecha's following," Wes said as he ran over to the cage. When he got to the cage door, he attempted to distract him. "Hey! Dope head!" he yelled, waving his arms to get his attention. "Your mum's a Magikarp!"

Swarmpert turned his attention to Wes and slowly walked towards him. Misty became startled of what was going. "Wes, what are you doing?" she said. Umbreon and Espeon were also concerned of what their trainer was doing.

"I got this in the bag. Don't worry, Misty," Wes said reassuringly. Swashbuckler let out another roar as he raised his arms to slam them down on him. Wes quickly moved out of the way, making the Swarmpert miss him by an inch as he slammed his clenched paws on the cage door, damaging it even more after the first damage he made. Despite that, the mud fish pokemon was still in his confused state as he continued smashing the door down with his strength.

"I get it now," Misty said, realising Wes's plan. Because Wes didn't have the key, he made the Swarmepert breakdown the cage door and then he would attack him when he completes breaking the door down.

"How Shellshock, Genghis?" Kahn asked, struggling to get up, momentarily dazed.

"Knocked out," Genghis snarled in reply seeing unconsciousness on the Cloyster's face. She returned him into her pokeball.

"Gasmask, Genghis," Kahn said after he placed his on his face. While Genghis did the same he pulled out a can with a ring connected to it. He pulled the ring out and tossed to it to the floor. He then quickly zapped the confused Swarmpert back into his pokeball while a green mist began spraying out of the can.

"Poison gas!?" Wes said annoyingly. "Give me a break! Just when I was winning!" He took out two of his pokeballs and zapped his Umbreon and Espeon, who were also surprised of the underhanded trick and Wes's upcoming sacrifice, back into their pokeballs. "Misty! Hold your breath!" he told her warningly.

Still locked in her cage, Misty covered her mouth and nose while shutting her eyes tightly upon Wes's command. Wes covered his mouth while he looked for the room's exit through the poisonous fog. There wasn't any. He ran to the door where he first entered and repeatedly slammed his fist on the steel door while Genghis and Kahn looked at him slyly.

Wes kept on calling for help while kept on slamming the door. The affect of the poisonous gas was making him lose unconsciousness with his mind spinning and his stomach turning. When all seemed hopeless, the steel door slid open… forcefully. On the verge of losing his senses, Wes shook his head, shaking away the dizziness. When his eyes stopped being blurry, he looked up and saw a Rhydon… and not just any Rhydon.

"Mecha," Wes said breathlessly, collapsing on the Rhydon's chest, breathing heavily but quickly while blinking numerous times.

"I saw the smoke. I came as quickly as I could," Mecha said. He quickly walked in and saw the can lying on the floor, still spraying out the gas.

"What in the world…?" both Kahn and Genghis said in shock, seeing the robotic arm on Mecha. Mecha quickly grabbed the can and tossed it out. Wes took advantage of the distraction; he ran and leapt towards them, kicking them in their faces, both with a great impact.

While they were knocked down, Mecha quickly turned around and grabbed the cage door. With all his strength, he yanked it right off the bars, freeing Misty from her imprisonment. She was sweating some large beads and breathing heavily after having to suffer from the effects of the gas despite holding her breath.

"Are you okay, Misty?" Mecha asked.

Misty quickly stood straight up and hurried towards him. "Where's Ash!? That idiot!" she yelled angrily.

"It wasn't Ash's idea to send us here," Mecha replied calmly yet nervously. "Black Jack said it would be best if Ash battled alongside the other guys against the leaders of both Team Ocean and Molten. Ash wasn't thinking straight because of your capture. He was so worried sick that he couldn't eat or sleep. He was angry too so there might've been a chance that his anger could ruin everything."

Surprised came into the heart of Misty. Worry. Anger. Unable to eat or sleep. Black Jack's idea. Those words went into her mind as she looked down with a saddened face and heart. She then looked back at Mecha with a determined smile. "I'll thank them later. Right now, we got the other guys to rescue," she said.

Returning to the battle scene at Team Molten's base, Metagross, Bluesky and Aurora were standing distances away from their opponents, the Arcanines and Charizards. All of them were heavily breathing because of the fatigue and the pain they all suffered during their battle. Despite the strength in numbers for Chraizards and Arcanines, being a four-on-three battle, the opposition were still in it because of their toughness, guts and heart.

"(Can't you… just… stay down)?" Arcanine B growled in a frustrated way, catching his breath between words.

"(What makes you think we're going to do that)?" Metagorss growled weakly.

"(You guys aren't bad, but with the lives of Aurora's tribe at stake, we're not backing down)," Bluesky growled.

Aurora lowered her head in tiredness, breathing in and out, gasping for air. It appeared as though she was on the verge of giving up. Her mind and heart was telling her not to give in but her entire body told her different for she had been bruised and battered throughout the entire battle. She looked over to her friends and family placed inside the electric prison, screaming and crying to be free. She then looked at the battle at hand; on the enemy's side, there were two Arcanines and two Charizards, fighting for the team's dominance around the world. While on her side there was Metagross and Bluesky, fighting to save the lives of other, which to their trainer's view was somewhat inadvertent but they enjoy a good fight but she knew that there were reasons than that.

With the high desire and need to rescue her tribe, she felt the adrenaline flowing around her body making her ignore all the pain she suffered. Then suddenly, she started glowing white, much to everyone's surprise. She was growing bigger in width, two wings grew out of her back, along with her arms and legs but from different parts of her body.

"(Bluesky… she's evolving)," Metagross growled.

Bluesky nodded agreeing with him, wondering how Aurora would look after her evolution.

After Aurora stopped evolving, her skin changed from the beautiful ocean blue to a sun-like orange, still beautiful with her blue wings and white chest. Despite her appearance, the opposition didn't care. "(You evolved! So what)?" Charizard No.2 growled bitterly. "(We're still going to beat you so badly that a magazine will headline you the most ugliest Dragonite! Let's get them, boys, while they're still wiped out)!"

With their remaining strengths left, the fire type pokemon rushed towards them. "(They've underestimated her)," Metagross growled.

Suddenly, an orange blur zoomed past them, slamming into the bodies of the fire type creatures knocking them down while one of the Charizards dodged the attack by quickly flying high into the air. He looked down with flames emerging slowly inside his mouth, ready to shoot his flamethrower attack at Bluesky and Metagross but they were no longer standing in their spot, much to his surprise. "(Hey, where did they go)!?" he thought to himself.

He confusedly looked up in front of him, seeing some glowing claws coming down on his face. With a vicious blow, the claws of Bluesky struck him across his face, sending him flying into Metagross's hard steel body with a thunderous thud. Charizard No.3 yelled in pain but Metagross was unfazed. Passed out, the flying lizard fell, threatening to fall on top of Aurora and his fire type comrades.

Aurora and Charizard No.2 got out of the way, making Charizard No.3 fall on top of the bodies of the Arcanines. After feeling the impact of the fallen lizard, the Arcanines became unconscious.

Charizard No.2, the only battling fire creature remaining in this battle, was on his paws and legs breathing in and out, trying to think of another plan. Soon, he spotted a green clawed foot on the ground. He slowly looked up, seeing the lower body, the upper body and then finally the face, all in a form of a green mean looking dinosaur. "(Oh crud)," Charizard No.2 growled, recognising what type of monster it was. "(Tyranitar)."

Tyranitar quickly grabbed him by the upper part face with one clawed paw before lifting him up. While held him up in the air, he was squeezing him by the held cranium, digging his claws into his skin to cause a great deal of damage while stopping the blood flowing around inside his head.

Charizard No.2 was shaking and struggling to get Tyranitar to break the hold. The green one sighed out of boredom, still waiting for the Charizard to become unconscious. Suddenly getting impatient, he violently, with massive velocity, slammed his head on the steel floor, knocking him unconscious. The impact was like of two trucks slamming into each other.

"(Well)," Tyranitar growled while his friends arrived on the scene. "(Looks like we're done with those goofballs)."

They looked at Bluesky and Metagross, both who appeared to be badly beaten. "(You let them beat you guys)?" Nidoking yelled in disbelief. "(We were manhandling them last time)."

Metagross glared at the Salamence, while he turned away out of guilt. "(We… got distracted at times. I mean four-on-one)…" Bluesky growled.

"(We)?" Metagross growled, feeling somewhat annoyed.

"(Aurora, you evolved)," Chan growled noticeably to the elegant dragon. "(Congratulations)."

"(Well, I had to do something)," Aurora cooed, eyes focused on Salamence who was being picked on by his friends.

"(Calm down, guys)," Tyranitar growled. "(We got dragons to free)."

"(Yeah, that's an electric barrier, right)?" Nidoking growled. "(I'm a ground type, meaning that no stupid zap can harm me)!"

"(Yeah)," Tyranitar growled. "(But Nido)…"

"(Cha-a-a-a-arge)!" Nidoking roared before zooming towards the barrier.

"(And he ignores)…" Tyranitar growled dully.

The purple monster slammed his body onto the barrier, in an attempt to penetrate the shield that was imprisoning the dragons who were yelling out their cries to be free. After some time struggling, the barrier shot Nidoking out with a great force that sent him skidding upon landing on his back. He quickly sat up, unscathed but he was surprised by the power of the barrier.

Chan spotted a number of gadgets, in shapes of cubes, circling around the dragons, lying on the floor where the electric barrier was being generated from. "(There's got to be a switch somewhere)," he growled before touching one of them. Upon touching it, he felt a small electric shock and yelled out in pain, quickly withdrawing his paw.

He shook his hand to shake away the shock he just felt. He looked and counted each gadget on the floor. There were seven of them. "(Guys, I got an idea)," he growled.

After telling his plan to his partners, including Aurora, they stepped in front of their respective targets, the cubicle gadgets that were creating the electric barrier. They looked down on them with determined looks on their faces, hoping that the plan would work without them getting any shocks. Each pokemon, outside the barrier, lifted their foot up. "(Ready)?" the Blaziken growled.

Everyone nodded, including the imprisoned pokemon. They too hoped that the plan would work.

"(Now)!" he roared. With their own roars, everyone slammed their foot down on the electronic devices, smashing them to pieces. The electric shield vanished, much to everyone's delight. They all rushed towards Aurora, gathering around her in an embrace.

Bluesky looked on with a smile while Aurora was rejoicing with her friends and family. He felt so happy for the pokemon he cared for, yet he felt a bit of sadness when he thought about a number of possible outcomes such as seeing his friend who he haven't seen after so long has to go away to find another secretive and peaceful place.

Suddenly, he felt a strong arm wrapping around his head, giving a small playful squeeze. "(Don't get saddy now, buddyboy)!" Feraligatr growled in delight. "(We got the other battle place to go to)."

"(Yeah, let's literally blow this place)!" Nidoking growled happily while rubbing his knuckles on the Salamance's head.

After he looked at his friends, who were smiling towards him, he lowered his head, still holding his smile. "(Yeah, we do)," he growled sombrely, knowing that there more important things to do than to what he had in mind.

Meanwhile, back at the beach near the Team Ocean base, a couple of Team Ocean grunts were laying the sandy ground motionlessly after receiving some heavy beats. The scared Plusle and Stevens backed away from the angry Rui while she held a large pink mallet with '100 tons' marked on it. She was breathing heavily after hitting the grunts with her almighty weapon. "No… one… messes… up… my daydream… about Wes!" she shouted angrily, panting between words.

Stevens looked towards the sea, seeing the smoke emitting from the Team Ocean base. He also saw a number of trainers swimming towards the shore. "Excellent," he said with a smile. "I hope things are going well with Black Jack and the others."
